NFS: Client mounts hang when exported directory do not exist
This patch fixes a regression that was introduced by the string based mounts. nfs_mount() statically returns -EACCES for every error returned by the remote mounted. This is incorrect because -EACCES is an non-fatal error to the mount.nfs command. This error causes mount.nfs to retry the mount even in the case when the exported directory does not exist. This patch maps the errors returned by the remote mountd into valid errno values, exactly how it was done pre-string based mounts. By returning the correct errno enables mount.nfs to do the right thing. Signed-off-by: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> [Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com: nfs_stat_to_errno() now correctly returns negative errors, so remove the sign change.] Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
